Reviews (page 12 of 13)

i just could not get behind this. i guess nothing was blatantly off but i just really did not vibe with the album. i can’t even remember liking a single song. can still respect the art though. 2/5.

I was like okay a 3, this is fine. Then track 7 hit and I was like nah. This is getting a 2. It just annoyed me and lasted way too long. Didn't like, sounds made me uncomfortable. The rest of thes songs were never better than meh, so I feel no pressure to give it a better rating than its weakest link.

I have head the band name before but couldn't give you a song name at all. Some of the song names sure are a sign of the time it was written. All that being said the album is a funk/soul album with a few pretty good songs a bunch of songs that makes me want to listen more to the genre. Just not this album or band. There is definitely great things happening in the songs, the brass and singing is really good. It just sort of falls flat for me a lot of the time.

não curti mto

They lost me once during the thirteen minute long sex machine, and then again during my brain. The instrumentals just didn’t hit for me. It was repetitive background music at best. But for the more active songs I could groove a bit, just not realllly my thing

The second track, holyyyy. This really was not my thing though at all. I couldn’t get with it, I didn’t find it fun, or entertaining, and certainly not meaningful or emotional. Or even really that quality. I can understand if this was maybe an influential record and that adding to its merit but it just didn’t do it for me. I will say though, I did groove with sex machine.

I see the appeal but Not a fan

Reading through the reviews; I feel like I'm missing something. I don't get it, and I don't like it. I thought I would. I'm sorry but this doesn't do it for me at all. I understand I'm in the minority, but I'm afraid it's a 2 for me.

Song: Everyday people this song sounds kind of good but not my favorite a lot is going on here like there are so many instruments which makes it sounds good Song: Stand! this song sounds good but not my favorite again because it kind of does not match with the instruments Song: i want to take you higher this song is good this time it actually matches and i also noticed that there is a harmonica in there.

Mix of blues and funk.

Has not held up the best.

Not my stuff...

Didn't really care for it, couple of good songs though.

I didn't liked because i don't understand the concept of the disc. A

Yeah I dont know about this one.

That was definitely not for me. I appreciate the music as technically good but it just didn’t feel interesting at all to me. I’m so surprised by these overwhelmingly positive reviews and I feel like I’m missing something. Well, it’s not the first funk album I can’t get into.

Can see why it was so good, not my style though

Some great songs but nothing really caught me.

Good funky stuff

Not very interesting. Don't recall anything about it, really.

I lack historical and musical awareness to appreciate this. I’ve heard Everyday People and it just doesn’t resonate with me. Sex Machine is making me laugh.

Some good songs but nothing grabbed me.

Wouldn't listen for second time

Funky.

It hasn’t grabbed me as a classic. Not helped by the slightly cheesy title track.

Me ritëm. 4/10

Ilmestymisvuosi on yllättävän varhainen (niin hyvä musavuosi 69!). Toimii, selvä suunnannäyttäjä. Ei kyl mun ominta genreä, joten en osaa fiilistellä kauheesti.

Not bad, pleasant surprise. First song was amazing.

I'm more of a Curtis Mayfield guy

The sound is clearly ahead of its time, and the highs are great, but for whatever reason I was underwhelmed.

Mouldy grandpa funk from the 60s with some supercharged phases but also muffled production, corny pocketful of posies pop melodies and vocals and some absolutely atrocious extended jamming which means that it doesn’t really stand up as a full decent album.

Do you like soul/funk music? Then this album is for you. The only thing I don´t like about this album is the lyrics. Everything else is good they have great beat, they have a great singer and the album cover is pretty cool. I would recommend this album just don´t look at the lyrics.

1st song:it sound so good i really like it i rate like 7/10 2nd song: it sound soo good i rate like 8/10 3rd song:its so nice it sound so good and it always right

Not gif me, found it a bit boring

When I was 16, I took a school trip to France, and the one teacher bought by a crepe because he was impressed that a 16 year old knew 'I Want To Take You Higher' was performed by Sly & The Family Stone (which I knew only because I owned and loved Duran Duran's 'Thank You' album). Anyway, this is a bit too noisy at parts for my tastes. I much prefer Duran Duran. 'Everyday People' is a classic, though.

Gave this one an honest go, and there are some interesting things and a real feeling of time and place. It is chaotic at times. I think I would have loved it if I were around back then. Today…it is all over the place.

Blind album, know the artist and the hit. I'm not sure if I'm just in a bad mood but half this album was fin and the other half sucked. No flow and I was flipping between bopping and wanting to skip tracks.

Cool but clearly not my thang.

For the first half, it sounds like they had written a great album then accidentally released the first draft instead. Empty soundscapes, lyrics that seem like placeholders. Like a jam session, but produced, which means it doesn't have the charm an actual jam session has. The 13 minute long track is taking the mick. Then it hits the single versions. Why aren't these the only versions! They actually sound finished!

Late 60s funk. Pretty standard. Just not my thing. Some interesting instrumentals. Boring.

The instrumentals are clearly meant to be the highlight for Sly, and they are good in some parts, but I can’t say I’ll be returning to this album again.

Jarring at times and funky at other times. Thematically I thought it was all over the place. Musically I thought it was fine and pleasant to listen to. Definitely some recognizable songs here and there. Mid, but not to the level of some of the 3 stars we’ve had on the list thus far.

There’s a lot of funk here, but the times that the beat continuously repeats along with the length is what does it in for me. A couple good songs that could boost this to a three, but I don’t think it’s in that tier as a whole.

I like a few songs from Sly and the family Stone, so I was hoping this album would introduce me to some more. Unfortunately, that's not the case. I still like "I Want to Take You Higher" and "Everyday People", but I really didn't like the rest of the album. This will be a weird one to score.

By repo was excited for this, but really failed to live up to what I’d expected.

This wasn't my favorite. Maybe one or two nice songs but nothing special to me.

I thought I would enjoy this more because I love funk and the album art but not as in love as expectdd

I remember some of these songs as singles when I was a kid. The whole album has that thin late 60s production sound. Album was just okay for me.

Eh, just wasn't that into it.

My favourite line is: "there's a midget, standing tall." I don't like this album. Some grooves that sound cool but last 8 minutes too long. Just doesn't feel like a cohesive album. And the singles are strong. Meh and the family stone.

Meh...giving it a 2

Starting off, I didn't think, "I bet this will turn into a Toyota commercial." But it did. I wouldn't imagine that would be the best song on a funk album. But it was. They picked the singles well, but this is otherwise a really noisy album for me, and I found it wholly unenjoyable.

Það vantar dálítið upp á að þetta smelli, finnst mér.

Interesting but dated.

funky way to start the morning

Funk ist nicht so meins

This was fine, was hoping to like it better. The 13 minute jam Sex Machine was pretty dull. I liked the two unreleased tracks at the end of the album version on Apple Music. Their performance at Woodstock was excellent, and Hot Fun in the Summertime is a great track, from another album. Their greatest hits album is worth checking out.

Soul und Funk.

Ok, some odd songs, oddish lyrics

无感

Some good tracks a couple do terrible ones.

Эээ... Итс окэй, но не настолько, насколько обычно окэй. Лучшая песня - Sing a Simple Song.

Mucha ercusión. Para escuchar de vez en cuando. Me gusta

Too old of a sound for me but the words were definitely something.

It’s not bad necessarily, just really not for me.

Was not feeling it. Felt a bit dated.

Vintage

The Spotify radio playlist that plays following this album is better than the album 2.4

Ich konnte mit dem Album nicht warm werden. Abgesehen von Everyday People ist es nicht meine Musik.

A couple of the songs I knew were okay. I just didn’t enjoy the album all that much. I probably should because Sly and the Family Stone are classic, but I just didn’t.

Not feeling this at all, pretty derivative with no hits

Soul and funk from 69.

2.5 Fun but a little boring.

It was okay, couldn't get into it like other funk albums.

Funky. Stopped paying attention a few songs in.

It's got some good songs and some stuff I hated. Sort of hovers between 2 and 3 for me. I don't like the good songs enough to outweigh the bad I suppose.

Some good 60s funk. A couple pretty good songs. Not my absolute favorite, but fun to listen to.

Monotonous funk jams.

trop inégal des sons fantastiques, d'autres oubliables

It's okay. Sec Machine made me feel like I had tinnitus.

Not listened yet

Everyday People See Machine I Want To Take You Higher

Didn't really do too much for me

I wish I liked this more but it was kind of a bit tedious to listen to, especially the 14-minute Sex Machine.. I'm glad I listened to this record because it paved a lot of ways for what was to come in soul and rock and roll but I don't think it aged super well and sounds very much of its time.

Ok…disappointing to an extent. Thought I would like this better than I did.

If you’re familiar with any of their songs (which you are, because of commercials) you could consider yourself familiar with this album and go ahead and skip it, if you were toying with that idea. Unless you really like the song you sort of know, and then you might love this! I don’t know your heart.

I love me a brass section. I'm not a huge fan of this era of soul/funk music, it often sort of blends into the background like some good coffee shop jazz, which isn't here nor there. Reading the history, The Family Stone was the first ever integrated black/white band in rock history, which is sick. I can imagine this being a blast live, apparently they killed at Woodstock, and I believe it. The second half is just radio edits of the first half, I did find myself betting bored. Top songs: Stand! Somebody's watching you Sing a simple song

Recognised the popular songs, didn't know it was this band. But they're not my thing, got bored and a bit irritated by the end.

Eh..it was ok

Just couldn't get into this

It's not my cup of tea

Funky, thunky, jazzy. Some very out there albums too. I hate to say it but this album was boring.

Ni bien ni mal. Un disco escuchable, de los que no cambian vidas

Är inte mycket för den här typen av musik.

Prefer the older albums. Stand - bit trumpety, but decent Ok, 5 tracks in and this is not as good as expected. It's like it's over-experimental. Best tracks: Sing a simple song; Sex Machine

If I wanted jams this funky, I would have just gone to the Sea Monster lounge on December 15 with Jason, Dom, and Jim

Endsechziger R&B.

Solid funk/soul music from the late 60's. I recognize several of these songs. Everyday People the most familiar to me. My favorite line "..shady as a lady with a mustache" from Somebody's Watching You. Priceless. Can someone explain the lyrics from Sex Machine please.

Not as good as I remembered, pretty groovy in parts. Vocoder thing in Sex Machine is highly annoying.

Funk has a weird place with me, I sometimes enjoy it and sometimes i find it boring, jammy and meandering. I have never quite pinpointed what makes me feel either way. This one fell to the latter, if it is due to just my mood today or not i don't know. It sounds good just wasn't feeling it today. Some good some bad songs.

I'm not diggin' the vibe on this one. It has this uplifting "Come on everyone, let's all sing some effin' songs together! WOO! Come on, baby gurl!" vibe -- it gets seriously grating after a bit. I'm also sensitive to treble, trumpets, symbols and groovy ass piano/synth/organs. Some voices felt a bit shrill to me, too. That being said, I did recognize "You Can Make It If You Try", "Stand!" and "Everyday People", and recognize they're really nice songs. I just can't Stand! them for long periods of time. Ha. Super personal rating: 2/5 - "Nothing wrong with it, I'm just never going to listen to this album ever again."

Some interesting stuff, but not my style.

Not my type of music

I wanted to like this album a lot more than I did. I know why it's included in the 1001, but it just... didn't do anything for me. Like technically, it's great. Just not for me. It's very background for me, not one song really caught my attention or held it (minus the talk box on the second). Sing a simple song was probably my fav of the bunch. Also this may look like it has the same star rating as kraftwerk but I'd actually go back and give kraftwerk one star sooo....

Big funk vibes kinda jazzy. I’m very confused by the second track but it isnt horrible? Still don’t love it though I want to take your higher has a good vibe quick music you can rock to. Fucking 15 minute long Guitar solo 2.3/5

I don't know why, but this album didn't catch much my attention, it's funk and i felt the vibe in some songs, but it's definitely not the best album i've listen.

I thought I was down with the funk. Turns out I straight up hate some of it (mostly the wailing vocal and guitars solos) and tolerate the rest.

there were a couple songs i liked like stand! and i wanna take you higher but overall not really my vibe

Thought the first song was the best, didn’t love that one n didn’t love the rest of the album either. 4/10

4/10 - Stand! Somebody's watching you and My Brain were the only decent songs. The rest really did not hit for me. Plus the 13+ minute guitar solo was not my cup of tea.

Nothing bad but nothing really stood out to me. Wouldn’t revisit. 4.5/10

A couple groovy tunes that capture the essence of soul but otherwise pretty weird overall, not a huge fan of the psychedelic aspects

I respect the effort here, and I'm sure this was remarkable for the time, but it's not a generally appealing listen. A lot of repetition and too-long efforts. Not awful, but not an album I'd put on again. Fav tracks: Everyday People, My Brain (Zig-Zag)

Feel very wonky and iffy about this album didn't feel all to good

I generally like soul music, so I thought I should like this especially given the history. It didn't really hit the spot for me.

Bit too 60's

I see where the Jackson’s sound came from, and where Prince heard funky. Not my go to sound but I appreciate the music being so different from the end of the Beatles and the beginning of Led Zeppelin.

Didn't really enjoy this one, the music was a little too simple I think.

Något för bögigt för min smak

Funky, but missing the fun. Nothing stands out and I don't really get it. Rating: 2/5 Playlist track: I Want To Take You Higher Date listened: 22/11/23

not vibing it

‘Sing A Simple Song’ was awesome. It had the funk turned right up. ‘Everyday People’ just great, although I only really knew it from the Arrested Development sample. ‘I Want To Take You Higher’, and ‘You Can Make It If You Try’ was also good enough to get me throwing some funky shapes at breakfast time. The rest of the album underwhelmed.

I did not like this, was funny and very meh

some alright tracks but most of them are lousy stand! somebody's watching you everyday people

Wasn't really my jam

You can tell they put a lot of effort in. Not my particular taste, but I definitely respect it.

Funky stuff, interesting

nononono, no me ha gustado nada

Wasn't really in the mood for listening to this, didn't really enjoy it too much. Can appreciate it though.

not for me really can understand other people enjoying it

its definitely growing my listening history. I think I might need to be in a very specific mood for this album to hit the right spot and currently as I sit hating physics I kind of dislike the distinct sounds of the 13 minutes of "Sex Machine" I am consuming. I understand why many tracks have been genre defining at the time, but retrospectively and with the context of modern culture some songs from this album just sound like a goldmember backing track or an overproduced porno music.

Pre-funk Not my favorite band. It seems like they’re constantly on the verge of making some good music but they keep coming up a little short. Sure, they have some classics and this album has the track which shall not be named.. but it’s all pretty mid. Ultimately, this is stuff that other bands picked up and carried over the finish line.

Whatever. Some funk thing. Ill not go at it again I guess. I like funk, but nothing memorable. Soooo sorry

I didn't enjoy this much at all. Some songs were torture and I ended up skipping it entirely (looking at you, Track 2). Some of it was good soul music, I enjoyed the song "Sex Machine" a bit, the vibes were good. But this just isn't my thing overall. Some songs reminded me of The Who who I know were popular in this era. Not something I would listen to again.

I enjoyed it.

2 A few good tracks on here that I'm glad I checked out

Si bien puedo reconocer que es buena música, con sonidos pegajosos y upbeat, además de considerar las temáticas que presentan, no es mi estilo.

It was weird and “experimental”. I wasn’t the biggest fan, the instrumentals were good but I wasn’t a fan of the vocals.

Different strokes for different folks. This didn't stroke anything for me outside Everyday People. A three seems too much.

Letkeetä

Great opening that rapidly fell off. Definitely felt the vibes though

Parts were enjoyable but overall just not my jam.

Might come back to it later

2. Ok but probably won't listen again or buy.

There is some really cool funk-soul here, like the title track, 'You Can Make it if You Try', 'Sing a Simple Song' and 'I Want to Take You Higher'. All the different voices fluttering in and out is fun, and clearly influenced the likes of Parliament. Larry Graham is a beast of a bass player. However, 'Sex Machine' absolutely sucks the whole album into a black hole of self-indulgence. It's horrible! And lasts for almost fourteen minutes! Get rid of this and replace with two or three more focused songs and you'd be looking at an easy four stars. The older I get, the less patient I have become with endless jams.

Not for me

Very 60's, not really my thing

Good, not great

Really didn't know what to make of this other than I didn't enjoy it at all. Some of it' is truly bad. The awful 13 min instrumental in it really tested my resolve to listen to all the albums all the way through. I believe it's one of the worst songs I've ever heard. I almost ended up rating this a 1 but I enjoyed the last track just enough to sneak it into a 2.

I hate jam bands. Okay ‘somebody’s watching you’ is a vibe I can get behind. Sex machine was long af that blew me. I’m sure under the right circumstances I would fw this more, a little too loosely organized for my taste.

This is one of the least interesting funk albums i’ve ever listened to. The first half was alright I liked it, but that second half was a chore to get through. Very bland rhythms and the vocals are generic to me. Not replayable for me.

It's alright, but it's not really for me. I thought there'd be more standout tracks, but a lot of it feels quite repetitive. Some of the longer jamming moments feel pretty tedious.

some good bits, but mostly felt like a series of failed experiments

Sex Machine may be the last song I listen to on this album.

There were a few decent tunes on this but it largely passed me by, not my favourite funk album and it's not a genre I particularly like.

Most songs sounded the same, and I was a bit disappointed.

These song are really repetitive. I know a lot of songs are, but I just couldn’t pay attention past like a minute in to any of them. The only exceptions were Everyday People (which clocked in at just over 2 minutes anyway), and - ironically - Sex Machine (which was 13 minutes long but actually included some variation and was a good, funky jam). Overall, it’s fine. But weren’t there other bands doing the whole “funk” thing better at the time. This just doesn’t do much for me.

Stand out - Everyday People

Just OK. A lot of it way too indulgent. Must have been a fun live band though. (prior listen)

Some cool bops but pretty generic.

Thought I was going to like this and I just didn’t

Not my particular brand of music. I can see that there is cultural significance in the album but the long winding instrumentals were too much for me to enjoy.

mostly very strange and exhausting songs. 1-2 catchy songs that i would listen to again.

Think I’m in a bad mood today cause I really just ain’t feeling funky. I don’t think I’m the funkiest funker at the best of times

Clearly good. Not my genre.

Didnt love this, I just like more tight songs

Pues en general suena muy bien y al principio prometía, pero ha ido de más a menos. Con salvedades como "You can make it you try". Me he aburrido, lo siento.

Old school funk, did not enjoy it much

Shouldn’t be on this list

It was aight

Not my thing. Strange for the time, strange for now. An interesting blend of genres that didn't really do it for me.

Not my jam soz

Bit dull with some good drumming

couple great songs, that's about it

Maybe I’m just not in a funk mood today? Got into it a few times, but not enough to like it as a whole. Kinda shrill sometimes. But would probably be good on a dance floor or something

Couple nice songs :x

Songs feel repetitive. I can see the influence of future bands, but I'm not really enjoying this album. Everyday People is a progressive song lyrically. I like this in moderation but would not listen to an entire album at once again.

Too chaotic for me

Loving the last 30 seconds or so of Stand!. Trumpet solo on point in I Want to Take You Higher. Good music but style does not particularly speak to me due to the repetitive lyrics. In general, Funk does little for me.

Alright Album, Soul Funk with a mix of weirdness thrown in. Pre-Cursor in some ways to Funkadelic but missing the drive of the music and the singing lacks a intimidating punch. Some decent listens but overall just an average listen to me.

Starts out strong with a great melodic footprint, setting down some major grooves and thematic pillars for the rest of the album. Falls apart about midway through, though, as tracks become more and more interlude-like with little driving focus.

Alright, the 13 minute song was a bit much.

Okay, not bad but wouldn't relisten much.

I thought this would be better than it was. The instrumentation irked me at times. Maybe it was the mixing, but I had to stop listening with headphones because certain sounds were grating. Everyday People was enjoyable at least.

Meh. Didn't really like it.

Pues su funk suena a ratos bien, a ratos muy extraño. No me atrajo. El funk que suena bien no pasa de ahí y el extraño me repele. No me quedaron nada de ganas de volverlos a escuchar.

Pretty fun and funky album. No huge standouts to me. Although the monstrous 12ish minute song did have some wild times in it.

Was looking forward to this and expected quite a bit out of it - however why it’s overall a good funk album it’s kind of a bit flat overall. Love the instrumental jams and the humour but the singles are not very remarkable. Quite an average album.

I'm not on enough drugs for this.

Except for Everyday People I thought this was mostly forgettable, having aged poorly. 2.5

Some good tracks

This album feels incomplete. The parts feel disjointed too often. For a while I wasn’t even getting a funk vibe. It does show up around Sing A Simple Song. I think listening to Sex Machine would have the opposite of the implied effect. I find far too much of this album boring.

I tried getting into it, I just couldn't. But it wasn't bad

Ok. I wouldn’t put it on though.

The 14-minute 'Sex Machine' captures this album in...well, not quite a nutshell. Exciting, enthralling, fades into repetitive dullness, then just as it seems to have outstayed its welcome sparks back into something interesting again.

Oh good, 1969 again! ffs list. This had a few moments but mostly it was psychedelic nonsense. Felt longer than 40min, too - the fucking 14min extended jam track didn't help. At least it's funk-based and not folk psychedelia, I guess. 2/5.

wasn't super impressed really short album (like 5 songs)

Tja, funkadelic, p-funk of hoe het ook allemaal heet. Ik zie toch altijd een vogelverschrikker en een blikke man lopen op een gele weg, als ik dit hoor.

Leuk voor een keer, maar soul en r&b is gewoon niet echt mijn ding.

Nooit echt mijn ding geweest.

Not bad

It was okay, nothing stood out for me though.

A stalled fist synonym- threatens to punch, but doesn’t deliver. A few good moments, but I was ready for more

Was looking forward to this, but it dissapointed big time.

important themes, not my go-to for type of music

I didn’t care for this album, but it wasn’t bad.

i have an old friend who's really into these guys. we are more different than i'd thought. i mean, overall, this was, you know, fine. Everyday People will always be catchy, so there's that. and i didn't realize until just now that body count was covering these guys - i remember seeing them do Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey at the first lotsalosers back in '91, and although i only ever heard it that one time (until i got to the body count album in this list), it stayed with me all this time. thing is, that was ice-t, not these guys. this album feels ahead of its time, based on what i know of music from 1969 - the thing is, i don't really love that funky disco thing that happened in the 70s, sooo...yeah. this one really isn't for me.

It was okay.

This is a soul/funk album from '69 fueled with a lot of the controversies that were happening at the time - and some continue to this day. I feel like these controversies take away from the music and end up souring my opinion on this album. The funk is good while the junk in the lyrics is not. The album can be considered historically important though as a result.

Soul no es mi fuerte. Me pareció interesante el Sex Machine que se quedan tocando por 13 minutos. 2/5

Bof, pas mauvais en soi, mais rien de ouf

Definitely a lot of funk. One really well know song. Most of the songs did not have lyrics. The Sex Machine joke writes itself. Also, I thought that Sex Machine was going to be the song Love Machine....it was not.

Not my kind of thing at all. Didn't bother with the 'bonus' tracks.

Was ok

2/5 it reminded me of Jimi Hendrix sounds, but not my cup of tea.

Liked one song.

Some good songs but overall not that great.

Album qui s’écoutent bien mais pas un chef d’œuvre, j’ai même pas tant le goût de le commenter ça veut dire qu’il n’a pas soulever mes passions Je l’évite sex machine Je levite dont call me nigga

en spectacle ils etaient tres fort a l Écoute ce sont les hits seulement eh oui

Wasn't the biggest fan if this album, which is surprising given that funk is one of my favorite genres. Many of these melodies sounded uninspired, the songs were repetitive and there's really nothing here that distinguishes this album from many other funk albums. There were some gems though, I absolutely loved "somebody's watching you" which reminded me of Frank Zappa in its zany vocal delivery and experimental instrumentation, I just wish the rest of the album was like that. The songs weren't bad necessarily, they were just forgettable.

It was alright.

Thought I would enjoy, but did not

I mean it was pretty okay, but nothing super got me beyond "Everyday People"

Somebody had the good idea to give a guitar to one of the Jackson 5 kids....

Some classics, the jams are too long though.

Key Songs: Stand!, Everyday People, You Can Make It If You Try

Groovy

Absolument rien ressenti en écoutant l'album + la prod de 13 min nique ta grand mère

No es mi estilo

ДОНТ КОЛ МИ НИГЕР ВАЙТИ пожилой гуфи слопчик

C'est pas parce que l'album a influencé des artistes qu'il est bien. Ça a mal vieilli, comme tout le rap de cette époque, non merci la nostalgie ne m'aura pas sur celui là.

Loud and noisy proto-disco. Discordant, annoying. I felt like I was halfway through, I was on track 3.

Won't be listening to this one again. I couldn't get through the album. Didn't find it particularly special.

No me gusta nada

Not for me. 1/5

Oh boy, how I regret wasting my time on this. They probably used it to torture people at Guantanamo.

This was, however, not good enough to be enjoyable with a headache. It wouldve been a 2, had I not had a headache

Overall for me this album is too much in one tone. The voice is more droning than expressive to my ear. Not a fave.

Started listening but never really heard it. So non descript it didn’t really register for me.

nd meins 1/10

This funk/soul album fires off punchy horns, rubbery bass lines, clipped guitars, and exuberant group vocals feeling like being dragged through a nonstop street parade—vibrant and overflowing with energy and fatiguing instantly.

утомили

Not mine

ehhh it was fine

not a fan

Not my thing

sprawdziłem 3 piosenki reszty mi sie nie chciało, skip

I really did not like this. I only got half way through before I had to stop.

Ah nope, not for me…. But no judgement. Just nothing for me. It’s way too „acoustic“ for me… too not-rocky or not-electricy. Where my synthies at :(

Bs. Didn’t listen.

Mit zu alt

Noty thing

I don't like this song because the start is not that good. I would not recommend this song I don't like this song because the background instruments are not that good. I would not recommend this song. I don't like this song because the beat is not that good. I would not recommend this song.

Not for me, this was quite a hard listen. Musicianship is excellent, but stylistically I could gel with theses songs.

Jeez!This album was proper dull. Felt like I was stuck in slow-mo, just waiting for something to pop. The tunes didn't really hit, and the whole vibe was just flat. Could've been way more exciting, to be honest!

I didn't really love this. It wasn't horrible, but I wont be giving it a re-listen.

scuffed....

would never listen again

In my opinion, I don't really like this album. I don't know why, but I don't like the singers, the background music, anything. I highly recommend that you don't listen to this album. I only like the scating in some of the songs, and that's all. And it's not even really scating. I highly recommend that you do NOT listen to this album.

Not for me

Did not like it all. Thought I’d really give disco a go and sly are well known but just could not vibe with any of the songs.

I recognized a couple but I did not enjoy the album at all.

Reeks of hippy

Awful! Simplistic repetitive and tuneless.

Seicht poppig mit social commentary.

No me gustó!

H*jnia

Not my vibe

Not good

Sorry but this genre of music does not do it for me. Avoided it when I was young but unlike some genre’s which I have grown to like and appreciate this type of funk and soul I cannot listen to and always push the stop button. Only good thing I can say is that some tracks take me back to my Mecca nightclub days standing at side of dance floor etc etc but even those nights sometimes turned out bad and this is a soundtrack for those times.

Nicht mein Geschmack.

Annoyingly funky.

If I could give it zero stars I would. Could not finish. It’s just noise

It was ok - not my favorite. I don't think I really like The Family Stone

not my jam. felt like a really long album.

Liked the music on a few songs. Overall, not a fan. No downloads.

Stick to the movies sly

Sex machine is a 13 minutes song.
